he loved lightning he lived on an island

He loved lightning
He lived on an island
His mother was a
His father was a gold
Cutting tool
Old scholia say that
Stesichoros says that
Geryon had six hands and six feet and wings
He was red and
His strange red cattle excited envy.
Herakles came and
Killed him for his cattle

The dog too
